While Nigerian singing sensation, Wizkid is currently buzzing on social media with recent happenings involving him, netizens dug up an old video of the time he was invited for an event in Ilorin, Kwara state and was offered plastic chairs to sit on.
Given the music icon’s latest feat of selling out the 02 Arena in London and achieving feats that’s never been done by a Nigerian or even African musician, netizens now find the old video quite diminishing of the singer.
Wizkid who appears to be a guest of honour, is seen in the video sitting on plastic chairs during the event.
Nigerian rapper, Emeka Akumefule, known professionally as Blaqbonez recently appealed to his landlord to increase the amount of his rent because he has been winning lately.
According to the “Bling” crooner, he’s achieved so many wins of late and he doesn’t think that with the amount of wins he has, he should still be paying the same rent as before.
He says he doesn’t mind having the same apartment, without any new modifications but the rent should be increased. Well, his landlord saw his request and decided to adhere to it. He sent him a message on WhatsApp stating that his rent has been increased and the singer took to social media to share their conversation.
The photographer who covered Nigerian singer, Wizkid‘s concert at the 02 arena in London, has rained encomium on the singer and his manager, Jada for giving him the opportunity to showcase the event through his lens.
The photographer, who happens to be deaf, in a WhatsApp conversation with Wizkid’s manager, Jada thanked the singer for the rare opportunity, while noting that no deaf photographer has covered the 02 arena in London.
The screenshot chat was shared on Instagram by Jada P, who captioned it with “always stay a blessing to others”.
The chat from the photographer reads,
“I would love to work with you and Wizkid again. Thank you. You are amazing person. I can’t believe that I did it! No one deaf photographer did 02 Arena before. I am the first deaf photographer done it. Thank you for giving me the opportunity. I appreciate you. It was a great experience. May God bless you and Wizkid,”

Former Presidential aide, Reno Omokri has tackled pastors who tell their members to pay tithe for divine protection but move around with armed security officers.
Taking to his Instagram page to address the controversial topic, Reno said it’s either such pastors don’t pay tithe or they don’t believe in their teaching.
He added that divine protection comes by faith, not tithe. Speaking further, Reno asserted that pastors are not supposed to collect tithe because God only instructed Levites to collect tithes.
Read his full post below,
“A pastor tells you that by paying tithe, you have divine protection. Then that same pastor goes out with armed security protecting him. It is either he does not pay his tithe, or he does not believe what he told you. Divine protection comes by faith, not by tithe! In fact, God ordained a day for you to be born and a day for you to die. Tithe or no tithe, no one can kill you before that day. And no one can extend your life beyond that day. Christ never collected tithes. His disciples never collected tithes. Do you know why? Because they were not Levites. ONLY Levites collected tithes because they were prevented from working by God. You see this in Numbers 18:21. New Testament Pastors worked-Acts 20:34. Old Testament prophets worked-2 Kings 6:1-5. The only people who did not work were Levites and pastors are NOT Levites.”

His post on Instagram reads;
“For over a year now I’ve been living a lie. Some people have advised me to go on with it but I fear for my mental health and my future so I’ve chosen to come out.
Big brother was my biggest shot at fame and nothing in the world could have stopped me from grabbing it with both hands but somehow I felt like I wasn’t enough and I needed to do more and BE more in order to stay relevant and to get some extra clout. I was desperate, the magnitude of the competition i was going for even made me more desperate so I attached a tag to myself – “I’m a Part-time Stripper” I said to the whole world.
I got the hype I wanted but it was unsustainable, I couldn’t live up to it because actually that’s not who I am but because I have the body I tried to force it, to push if I could keep living the lie to make it become truth but the more I did, the more I regretted. I wasn’t deriving any pleasure and in fact I felt like I was making a fool of myself so I had to stop.”

You just got to be a proud Nigerian 
Day 3!”.
. Women deserve daily awards
